- Fraction Fill-In game from Kent Haines - Students take turns colouring in parts of a fraction wall given the results of the roll of dice. The first student to colour in their whole board wins.
- Adding Fractions Math Menu - In this activity, students are given 8 constraints to try to match when creating addition of fractions questions. Their job is to try to create enough questions to satisfy all 8 constraints collectively. You can also try this in a Desmos Adding Fractions Menu Math Activity.
